.If the printed characters don't match the characters on the
screen:
• Check DIP switches 5 to 9. These switches control the character set as
explained at the end of Chapter
1.
Tables are given in Appendix C.
• Some software is not able to display international characters on the screen.
If you use an international character set you may want to paste labels
on the keyboard.
• If some printer commands are ignored or executed incor-
rectly:
• Check that the setting of DIP switch 5 matches the printing mode em-
ployed by your software: ON (back) for Commodore; OFF (front) for
ASCII (non-Commodore). Note that the mode can also be changed by
the < 27 > < 93 > < 48 > and < 27 > < 93 > < 49 > commands.
• A few commands are mutually exclusive. For example, you cannot get
emphasized condensed printing.
.If
you have problems with horizontal tabulation:
• Don't change the margins after setting tabs.
• Don't change the print pitch after setting tabs. The physical positions
of the tab stops do not adjust to the new print pitch.
• If
you have problems with download characters or graphics:
• Use a hex dump to verify the codes the printer is receiving. See the graphics
command descriptions in Appendix B. Some computers insert unwanted
commands (such as carriage returns and line feeds) in graphics data, or
change the values of certain codes.
• Seven-pin graphics can be printed only in the Commodore mode, which
is selected by setting DIP switch 5 to the ON position or sending the printer
the command <27> <93> <48>.
